Defining the Primary Business Component

If you want your Workflow Process to respond to actions that occur on a particular business component, then that business component must be the primary business component for a business object. For example, to respond to an action on an account, such as the creation of a new account, the following must be true:

  1. The Workflow Process definition must specify the Business Object (in this case, Account) on the Workflow Process definition.

  2. The Account Business Component must be the primary BusComp in some Business Object, which it is - that is, the Account Business Object.

Updating Fields in Nonprimary Business Component

You can configure Siebel CRM to update fields that reside in a nonprimary business component.

To update fields that reside in a nonprimary business component, make sure that a link exists between the primary business component and the business component that contains the field that Siebel CRM must update.
